Getting a house valuation in Stenhouse

How a property is valued in Stenhouse

A good valuation starts with what has genuinely sold in Stenhouse — not what was asked, but what sold and on what terms. It then accounts for how your property differs: floor level, aspect, outlook, condition, and whether the layout works for the buyers who actually shop in EH11.

A valuation appointment usually takes about forty-five minutes and should give you a figure, the evidence behind it, and a recommended pricing strategy — offers over, fixed price or a closing date — with the reasoning made explicit. Lothian Property does not carry out valuations: complete a Property Review and, if you ask us to, we will introduce you to an independent local professional who does.

Separately, the single survey inside your Home Report carries a valuation from a chartered surveyor. Buyers and their lenders read that figure, so the marketing strategy has to be set with it in mind rather than around it.

Stenhouse seller questions

How do I find out what my Stenhouse home is likely to be worth?

Start with the recorded sale evidence for comparable Stenhouse properties, then have a Home Report survey carried out by a chartered surveyor — that figure is the one buyers and lenders work from. Our property review sets out the evidence and the options; we are not surveyors and we do not give a valuation.

Does a property review cost anything in Stenhouse?

No. The review is information only: comparable evidence, likely timescales and the routes open to you. If you ask us to, we introduce you to independent Edinburgh professionals, and we tell you where we are paid a referral fee.
